Which length steering cable do I need?

Measure your existing steering cable end-to-end, or check your helm/engine service documentation, and match that measurement to the closest length in this line: 7', 8', 9', 10', 10.5', 11', 11.5', 12', 12.5', 13', 13.5', 14', 14.5', or 15'. Installing the wrong length can bind the steering or leave excess play.

What is the Ezy-Glide replacement steering cable used for?

It is a direct-fit replacement for the internal steering cable in Ezy-Stik 830, 840, and 870 stick steering systems and EZY Stik II/III helms, restoring smooth steering when the original cable stiffens, binds, or develops play.

Will this cable fit my Ezy-Stik or EZY Stik helm without modification?

Yes, each length is manufactured to OEM specifications so it connects directly to your existing helm and engine-end fittings without needing to replace the helm itself.

Do I need to replace my entire steering system to install this cable?

No, this is a standalone replacement cable that installs into your current Ezy-Stik or EZY Stik helm and engine end fittings.

How do I know if my steering cable needs replacing?

Common signs include stiff or hard-to-turn steering, binding at certain wheel positions, looseness or play at the helm, or visible cracking, rust, or fluid seepage along the cable jacket.

Is this an original Ezy-Glide part or an aftermarket copy?

This is a genuine Ezy-Glide branded replacement cable, sold under the manufacturer's own part numbering (RC-0700 through RC-1500) for Ezy-Stik and EZY Stik systems.

What systems is this cable line compatible with?

The full length range is compatible with Ezy-Stik 830, 840, and 870 systems; the 12', 13', and 15' lengths are also compatible with EZY Stik II and III.

Can I install this steering cable myself?

Most boat owners with basic mechanical tools can install it by disconnecting the old cable at the helm and engine ends and bolting in the new one of matching length, though consulting your helm's service manual is recommended.
